Our minds have evolved to do this over many many thousands of years and is hard-wired to do it in particular ways. For the vast majority of those years, we have existed out in the real physical world and so our minds are best suited to interpreting physical things and environments. This is why it is often relaxing to sit in a garden or go on a bushwalk. The mind is surrounded by things it is naturally suited to understanding so it has to do little work and is thus happy.
The modern world is quite removed from this however. The presentation of material on paper and computer screens etc is very recent and quite different from what our minds are evolved to work with. The subconscious has to go to a lot more effort to interpret what it sees. We don't normally notice it but over time it will drain us.
Good design aims to work with the minds natural ways of interpreting information and thus reduce the amount of work it has to do. The concepts presented below aim to achieve this.
